Broadcaster Baek Sung-jae made his first appearance on a talk show with his wife, Kim Da-young, who is 14 years his junior. The couple, who recently announced their pregnancy and revealed they would become parents by the end of this year, appeared in a recording session held last August while concealing her baby bump. They opened up about everything from their secret romance to their newlywed life.

Baek Sung-jae and Kim Da-young appeared as guests on the KBS 2TV variety show "The Problem Kids of the Attic Room," which aired on the 6th. On that day, Baek Sung-jae and Kim Da-young shared the joys of their newlywed life, covering everything from their first meeting to their plans for a second child.

At the time of the broadcast recording conducted in August, Kim Da-young was already in her mid-pregnancy stage, but she did not mention her pregnancy during that recording session.

When Hong Jin-kyung praised Kim Da-young, saying, "You are truly beautiful in person," Kim Da-young replied, "I have also gained some weight because I resemble my husband," indirectly referring to her increased size. In fact, Kim Da-young appeared wearing a loose-fitting black long dress that day. The couple continued their conversation without mentioning the news of their pregnancy.

Prior to this broadcast, Kim Da-young posted a photo of the two taken during the August recording session on her personal account, captioning it, "Looking back now, my belly was already quite prominent at that time (August)," showing off her baby bump. She had only been able to freely display her baby bump after recently announcing her pregnancy.

On the show, the couple revealed details of their secret romance era. Kim Da-young said, "We originally kept it a secret all along. But I got caught." She explained, "Even during our dating period, I went to (Baek Sung-jae's) house every day and cooked for him. Since I was buying ingredients with my own money and cooking every day, my husband gave me his card. I used to keep that card tucked behind my phone, but I lost my phone. Eventually, it came out when I called the radio writer who works with my older brother."

Subsequently, Kim Da-young shared, "I talked a lot to my mom while dating and handled things well, so I got past that hurdle. But when we said we were getting married, my father and younger brother opposed it. My younger brother is close with me, but when he heard I was marrying someone of the age of his company department head, he cried after our first marriage announcement."

When asked about the age gap with his mother-in-law, Baek Sung-jae revealed, "There is an 11-year difference," surprising the audience. This age gap drew attention as it was smaller than the 14th-year difference between him and his wife, Kim Da-young.

Also on that day, Kim Da-young said, "I cook every day for my husband," revealing a neatly prepared meal. In response, Joo Woo-jae asked, "Is it three meals a day?" Baek Sung-jae replied, "It turns out I am the one eating those three meals," smiling happily.

Previously, Baek Sung-jae and Kim Da-young officially announced their pregnancy on the 30th of last month. A representative from Baek Sung-jae's agency, SM C&C, told StarNews, "The couple Baek Sung-jae and Kim Da-young is currently preparing to welcome a precious life."

Afterward, Kim Da-young uploaded a video titled "The baby has arrived..!" to her YouTube channel "Da-young Ahnaya" on the 2nd of this month, sharing stories related to her pregnancy.

Kim Da-young revealed that after taking about a year off following her resignation, the first show she appeared on was the SBS variety program "Same Bed Different Dreams 2 - You Are My Destiny." She shared, "I did not know I was pregnant when I decided to appear. I found out in the middle of it."

On the other hand, Baek Sung-jae and Kim Da-young met as senior and junior colleagues at SBS, developed a romantic relationship, and married in May last year after dating for about two years. Instead of holding a separate wedding ceremony, the couple commemorated their marriage with a meal attended by family members from both sides. They recently received congratulations after announcing their pregnancy approximately one year and four months after their wedding.
